Newbie, can i get any help?

About 3 months ago I had my first trip, and i loved it. I got really into shrooms and I decided to grow them. I´ve been reading a lot but I still have lots of questions.
I have 4 rye grain pint jars currently colonizing. But I just realized that the jar opening is a little smaller than the body. (Ill try to upload a picture)
What would be the best method to extract the colonized grains. I have a fruiting chamber prepared as well, but I just read that rye grain are usually used for bulk growing, cant I just fruit directly fro the grains?
Thank you for your help!

You break the grains up. Slamming it against a bike tire is recommended and you pour the grains out. If you shake those jars they will be done in 3 days from now too

Bang them on a telephone book or something like that. Get the grains broken apart. Don't use your knee or hand or something, if it shatters it can cut you deep.

You can case rye grain. You would need to learn how to pasteurize a suitable casing layer. Cover the grain with the casing layer 1/2-1 inch thick let colonize and fruit in your fc.

What would be a simple and good casing mix?
About the pasteurization, Is it ok to get the mix inside a ziploc and drop it in a pot with hot water (160-170 F)for about an hour?
Thank you again for your responses, they are very helpful!

Potting soil or 50/50 verm/peat No that doesnt sound sufficient for paseurization. One of RR's videos shows how to pasteurize in a pot on the stove
