 Need advice for aeration of a 5 litre jug

Hey...
I got myself 2 massive 5 litre glass jars which are sealable with glass lids and a rubber ring in between.... I filled each up with 3kg of rye which is just bathing in warm water to germinate spores prior to sterilization... ok.... since these jars dont fint into my pressure cooker I was thinking of putting them in large water filled pans and then simply boit everything for like an hour... then I`d just open the lid a little to squirt spores in....
The problem is, that the fungus and seeds need to be aerated during colonization.... right? how should I do that? should I just leave the glass lid and cover it up with like 3 layers of cloth? or open the jar once a day? maby just seal it without the rubber ring? (which lets at least water through...)
Help would be greatly apreciated...

You can not sterilize rye by simple boiling, it needs to be either pressure cooked, or fractionally sterilized:
