Cold brew is weak coffee. The hot water extracts more, faster, from the grounds. Cold brew doesn't pull as much, even overnight. You get a smoother, sweeter drink, but far fewer compounds than heat or pressure (espresso) get you.
(This is not a slam on cold brew. If that's what you like, more power to you. It's great for a make-now-drink-later approach.)
