Since it is pre-defined, you can do the following during capture
definition

  (format "* Headline
  :PROPERTIES:
  :Time: %%^{minutes|-|%s}
  :Rating: %%^{rating?|-|%s}
  :END:"
          (mapconcat #'number-to-string '(10 15 30 60) "|")
          (mapconcat #'number-to-string '(1 2 3 4 5) "|"))

Can't you?

Regards,
