Question about grinding for cold brew

I had to pick between a coarse grind and a medium grind for my cold brew batch last weekend. I went with medium because I wanted a stronger flavor, but after 18 hours it came out way too bitter and almost muddy. My friend in Portland said he always uses a coarse grind for 24 hours, so I guess I messed up. Has anyone else had this happen when they tried to change the grind size? What's your go-to method for a smooth cold brew?
