The process of milk processing industry production is committed in increased productivity, quality, high nutrition, and product safety. The process of production milk processing (yoghurt) involves mixing, pasteurization, filling, sealing, packing and palletizing. Material losses became one of factors that inhibit the increase in company productivity. This research aims to identify and analyze the level of waste and their impact on the company�s production cost for Activia yoghurt cup and Milkuat yoghurt cup products. This research mapped the problem input-output analysis approach which based on mass balance. Total dissolved solids in the process of flushing material used as one indicator of losses. Solubility analysis of total dissolved solids using thermogravimetri method on �Flush to SURGE� process from mixing tank towards ferment tank and ferment transfer tank towards storage tank. Furthermore, the analysis considered with the result mass balance production, type of product, types of raw material, material losses per batch, economic value per material, and pipeline design in the production line. The result of the research showed that the material losses that occur at 7% batch size (per 5 ton) can be reduced with flushing configuration (set counter flushing) on the process of product transfer from ferment tank towards storage tank. Improvement proposed of set counter flushing on the flush to SURGE stage 105 kg water addition and product transfer from ferment tank towards storage tank product quality of improvement outcome, TS 20.04
