You can, make defconfig, make menuconfig, turn off the experimental options
on the first page simplifies going through the rest (at a cost of some blank
menu screens these days). I only do this for new machines. Old machines
have config lying around. Be cause I put my configs up on web site, I have
a starting point for slack reinstalls on the existing machines.

I don't find it takes too long, most options get turned off. The firewall
takes longer as it has netfilter to setup too, but reconfigure from scratch
is rare.

And then one carries a good config through to new kernels, adding or
rejecting any new kernel features.
