The Magical Fruit
The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

MODERATORS
Adding or subtracting a paper filter can be interesting.
Airtightness is worth thinking about to keep the brew tasting fresh, especially for concentrate storage.
Upgrade your ice using filtered water, maybe big cubes vs ice tray.
And of course, try a hot brewed ice coffee with the same beans to compare.
Interesting, I made my first batch in a French press..only enough for one serving though. If I make a bigger batch, how long have you found one can store the concentrate? It'd be tempting to make a huge batch on the weekend to last me the week. I only see myself having a cup a day.
I don't think there's a clear cutoff from a taste perspective, it'll just be staler the longer you wait. As with most things, it's just about juggling the convenience vs quality tradeoff. But the win-win solution, especially in the later days, might be that condensed milk everyone's talking about.
