How does a percolator produce coffee?
It doesn't, coffee is grown. The way a percolator works is by the change in the density of water when it is heated. Water is placed in the percolator then the riser tube is placed in and the filter cup with ground coffee in it is placed on the top of the tube, ABOVE the top surface of the water. The water is heated at the bottom of the pot, this hot water rises and is directed up the tube, cold water replaces it at the bottom of the pot, this cold water as the density is much higher forces the hot water up the tube where it overflows into the filter basket and percolates back down through the coffee grounds, then back to the pot to be cycled through again. The percolation slows down as the temperatures in the pot equalize, or the water level is lowered.

It's a 'sensory organ'. It basically takes the form of two 'pockets' in the roof of the snakes mouth. When the snake flicks out its tongue, microscopic scent particles stick to it. Withdrawing the tongue back into its mouth, the tips are inserted into the Jacobson's organ, and the snake's brain decodes the information.
