When you know its time to replace your coffee sock

Like all coffee makers a day will come when the life of your coffee sock has come to the end.  Now for me this day has come.  I have been using the same coffee sock for about 5 months straight.  I use it at least two times per day and it has done its job faithfully.

But now when I add the coffee and boiling water it takes FOREVER to come through the coffee sock.  I thought it may have been my fault for not drying it right now, but no.

So after persisting for a week, I have come to terms that I will need to put my faithful friend to rest and start a relationship with a new coffee sock.
