Question

Can a meat Pyrex utensil that was mistakenly used for hot dairy be koshered? (Ashkenazi custom)

Answer

Shalom and blessings

Pyrex is glass. 

According to the Ashkenazi custom, it absorbs and does not release, so koshering does not help. 

According to the Sephardic custom, glass does not absorb at all. [Some are stringent with Pyrex, as it is not exactly glass].
