Milk was originally distributed in 'pails', a lidded bucket with a handle. Often two pails would be carried on either end of a wooden yoke. Once the railways started carrying milk, the pail proved less than ideal as it was top-heavy and tended to spill. Dairy farmers used a tall conical wooden container - a butter churn - to 'churn' the milk to make butter, and this proved to be preferable for the railways to transport. It held a lot more milk (about seventeen gallons) and its conical shape made it less likely to spill or topple over. These wooden churns were intrinsically heavy however and from the 1850s a steel version was introduced and soon became the standard. The name churn was retained for these containers although they were not themselves used for 'churning' butter.
nowadays when mentioned milk churn, or milk receiving tank, we are mainly talk about the stainless steel barrel which used to collect fresh milk on a milk farm. in some countries and areas Aluminum milk churn is much more popular than stainless steel milk churn. on the top lid of the milk churn, there is a steel bear which can be used to put some labels from the farm. the sylinderical milk churn body will be well polished and the mushroom shaped milk churn lid comes with a milk churn gasket. two side handdles welded to the neck place of the milk churn.
