A coffee percolator is a type of pot used for the brewing of coffee by continually cycling the boiling or nearly boiling brew through the grounds using gravity until the required strength is reached. The grounds are held in a perforated metal filter basket.
I don't know how true it is, but I've been told that if I ever visit Finland, and find myself in a pub, all I have to say is "Suomi perkele!" and the people will repeat it back, and then we'll be friends for the night.

So... a damntor? I still don't get it. Or is the joke that a Finnish word sounds like a different English word?

Just a pun. Like, "What's a moderator's favorite fruit? ...A BANana!"
