Is it possible that you're riding with just enough pressure on the brake pedal to have the brake rubbing full time?
That would heat the oil up and then when you brake you don't have to go far before it's boiling. Once it vapourises too, it will tend to stay rubbing unless you let it cool down. Sort of fits your symptoms.
Solution? Adjust the pedal position and use the back brake less anyway.
