- Knowing the difference between one home glass product and the other could literally save your microwave from blowing up and catching your entire kitchen on fire.
One is safe to interact with heat, while the other will explode.
I tell you everything you need to know about pyrex and PYREX products in under 47 seconds.

Video is about as near-perfection as one could hope for.
As is this comment, my friend.
@@9uidin9li9ht2 Thank you for your delightful reply ☮
Fake news isnt perfection. Its misinformation.
PYREX is also used in labs for doing experiments .
Soda-lime glass, not subtle lime glass
Lol, I found the blue subtitle in the beginning funny
Thank you
Based on my studies this will be a sellout - in Balkans where some 6 Million decedent occur the US Based take over locals filling brands with cheap shoddy replacement that are nowhere near sufficient
This guy’s voice omg, so soft
You should consider doing ASMR
But also hard to hear clearly . For example, he pronounced the company like it was "road" kitchen .
And then there's the confused subtitling of the cheap glass type .
Well I’ve been microwaving the wrong Pyrex for years. Neat.
Thank god the only lowercase Pyrex I own are mixing bowls.
Upper and lower case tells you nothing about whats its made of.
All it takes is one exploded piece of modern Pyrex to really detest the penny pinchers that eliminated it from the American market
The logo doesnt tell you anything, both upper and lower case were used with both types of glass. Ann Reardon proved that.
my Pyrex dish has the all-caps, encircled logo :)
but it has a blue-ish tint :(
So I'm not sure which type mine is!
Just checked and 'pyrex' is typically sold in the US
'PYREX' is sold in Europe, where I am, so I think I'm safe :)
Makes sense as I regularly bake in it at nearly 500 *F (my oven goes up to nearly 300 *C) and I've had no issues with it!
@@leoh2251 PYREX is sold in the US. Idk who told you this. It’s an American brand.
@@leoh2251 also, it’s not baking at high temperatures that’s the problem, it’s temperature changes. You could bake it at 175C and then submerse it in cold water, and it will shatter.
If it has a blue tint, it doesn’t really matter what the logo is. Y’all just have a different logo in Europe.
@@dewilew2137 I saw online that the lower-case 'pyrex' is only sold in the US. The US gets both varieties as described in this video. Europe seems to only get the more resiliant version.
Dont go by the case or the tint, thats fake news.
So is fake ?
Not necessarily. You can still use pyrex (lowercase) for lower but still hot temperature liquids and not a boiling liquid or heating your pyrex then putting it straight onto the room temperature countertop. Helps to save cost as well.
Still, a borosilicate glass like PYREX or Simax are still the best for high heat difference (∆T) applications like baking and cooling a hot liquid quickly without shattering.
