You don't need to take bias frames each time you image -- thee are measuring the electronic read current of your camera, which is instantaneous and so unaffected by temperature. They are also taken at the shortest possible shutter speed. So if you are concerned about noise, do a one-off session where you take 500-1000 of them, and create a Master Bias. Then re-use this again and again, and stop worrying.
