Remove/revise section "Bulk tank maintenance suggestions"

This whole section, while interesting, should probably be chopped out of this article. It reads like an owner's manual, and there is a Wikipedia policy which states that Wikipedia is not an instruction manual. If this section can be rewritten to be more encyclopedic then it would be acceptable in this article. DMahalko (talk) 11:06, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Concur. Removing this and making a few minor grammar edits. -MalkavianX (talk) 17:13, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Suggested move: Bulk tank > Milk cooling tank

The article is about milk cooling tanks, not about bulk tanks in general. Short-term milk storage is a bit different from storage of most other fluids (e.g. long-term storage of other food fluids, storage of non-food fluids, non-cooling storage), and there are some differences in handling, tank construction, etc. therefore. Milk cooling tank characteristics are already reflected by the current text at great length. Of course, there are several aspects all (or nearly all) types of bulk tanks have in common, but those could be described (under the current "bulk tank" title, after the move) in a new article, or in a disambiguation (if there's potential for other more specific bulk tank articles). --:bdk: 00:24, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Kerosene powered bulk tanks among the Amish

In some Amish communities, bulk tanks are chilled using a kerosene driven heat exchanger. It would be interesting to see an addition to this article that included this alternative method. Pete unseth (talk) 20:58, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
