Make sure the brake linkage is adjusted correctly. It must have some free play. The front of the primary piston MUST return back far enough to uncover the compensating port in the bore of the master cylinder. If not the fluid is trapped in the system and as the system temperature goes up the fluid expands and gradually applies the brakes. As it cools down then things will seem to return to normal.
