copper vs aluminum, what's the safest for health?
Assuming the answer can't be C) Stainless Steel I would go with Aluminum.

The USDA specifically mandates (1) stainless steel 300:


  "Milk contact surfaces shall be made of stainless steel of the 300
  series, equally corrosion-resistant non-toxic metals or heat-resistant
  glass."


Is the copper tinned?  From what I can tell after reading some old sources (2) un-tinned copper will be corroded by milk.  You have the advantage of a cool temperature lowering contamination risk (3), but many states following the FDA specifically removed the allowance of tinned copper (Sec. 22-201).

While the effects of life long dosing of Al are becoming more and more clearly tied to Alzheimer's (4), the effects build up over time.  Copper has a tendency to be more acute (5) and pronounced (6, 7), and further it can tasted in low amounts  and discolor the food (8).  It can be said that water flows through Cu pipes, but soda is put in Al cans.

The research for this has been quite enjoyable, and led to things I didn't even think of.  A alternative cleaning site has even recommended using milk to clean Cu pans.

Again so my final recommendation is to follow USDA guidelines and use stainless steel, but my second choice would be Aluminum.
