Very cold fuel A320F

The procedure for dealing with very cold fuel in the A320F is either to increase mach, descend or a combination of both. I was wondering how long it takes to get the fluid to warm up after completing these actions, and how much of an altitude change would be required. Temperature over Labrador -Greenland last night was -68c and the aircraft had been fuelled with Jet A at a very cold US airport.
