I got one of these as a gift and have not successfully made good coffee with it. I've only tried twice, though. I just went back to brewing hot and letting it cool.
You can also just put everything in a jar (water/grounds) and let it sit overnight in the fridge, and then pour it over a filter (I think some people use a square of cheesecloth?) when done brewing.

I like the sock idea because it's reusable.
I've done this with a coffee filter and has ok results. I used this method and made hibiscus iced tea and it was great! But the coffee was not.
Get a toddy brewer. Go to Amazon. Courtesy of my husband who used to run a third wave coffee shop and is now head of education for a coffee roaster. He says this is the best cold brew system for home.
I am so with you on this it's making me emotional. I am obsessed with Starbucks iced coffee and I can never recreate it. I know nothing about coffee socks, Lila Snow.

Primula cold brew coffee maker. So good. It makes a concentrate so you can dilute to your liking. Everything is dishwasher safe. I usually get a few days worth of coffee out of 1 brew. And I add water and some new grounds each night to make it last a little longer.
