Hello!

Which is the meaning of "chase up" in this sentence? Thanks a lot.

"But her hands, as they slowly dip the spoon, so the coffee chases itself up through the crust of sugar, her hands have done good service."
I think it means that the coffee is being absorbed into the sugar in such a way that it appears to be going up or chasing itself up.
