John, one U.S. gallon is 3.785 L. So, a 4 L container would be 215 mL
larger than a 3.785 L container. However, I should mention that there has been a
move afoot in the U.S. (I think it was in a dairy in New York State) to make a 3
L milk container, not a 4 L.

Hello I have a
question. If the US dairy industry changed the containers of milk from 1 gal
to 4 liters does anyone know how much larger approximately the 4 l container
wood be? I have seen the US gal container and the 4 liter container we
use in Canada and there doesn't seem to be much difference in size. If the
dary industry went to 4 l containers people would probably call them gallons
for a long time. People still call the 4 l containers gallons in Canada
sometimes, and it has been 25 years since the Canadian dairy industry changed.
