Official Report: Cold-brew coffee steeped for two weeks does not taste noticeably different from cold-brew coffee steeped for twelve hours, nor does my current physical state suggest a higher caffeine content.

Which I guess isn’t really surprising! There’s only so much Coffee Stuff in coffee grounds, and more rigorous nerds than I have elsewhere argued for only eight hours as the maximum-saturation point.

I don't bother straining the pitcher as a whole -- just put a filter over my cup in the morning, pour, pitcher goes back in the fridge. It lasts the week with no appreciable difference in either flavour or caffeine content.
