Your target location defines how many stars you need at the top-level
of your capture template. Each successive level of sub-heading then
starts on its own line with one more leading star, just the same as
anywhere else in org-mode.
I use a certain capture template for a type of task with required
subtasks. That template could be massively simplified as:
** TODO Finalize %?%^{item}
SCHEDULED: <%(my-next-next-working-day)>
*** TODO Process %\1
SCHEDULED: <%(my-next-working-day)>
**** TODO Prepare %\1
SCHEDULED: %t
WFM with target heading "* Captures" in file "Todo.org"
