Brake Cooling A320

I’m new to the Airbus, having previously flown Boeing and other types.

Since there is no brake cooling table, is there a particular technique to work out whether I should be landing with max reverse to limit brake temps? I want to use idle reverse as much as possible but I don’t want the brakes to be amber by the time I push back / reach the runway.

For info: Our fleet DOES NOT have brake fans and the turnaround times vary from 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Any help would be much appreciated.
